Burried Naked and Unsafe Milota Sidorova

It's been almost 9 days since Sichuan earthquake and the consequences seem to deepen in terrific measures.Recent statistics suggest kilometers of destroyed landscape, houses, currently 74,000 dead and 247,000 hurt and almost 5 million of homeless left without any shelter. China stood up, covered by the black cloud of three days of mourning silence, when suddenly thousands of voices break up this terrible vacuum. It's protest of desperate parents, whose children died in schools during the earthquake. The ground of suspicions is weak architecture of these public buildings.Summing the records, there's been more and more cases, when the only building crashing down in the far area was a school. Fuxing primary school in Wufu is one of them. Almost 127 pupils found their death in the ruins of former school. Yinhua reported 200 dead students in city's middle school, that actually had two more illegal levels. The statics of the building was seriously disturbed. According observers even ruins were not blocks but powdered fragments, that was the proof of how bad the schools were built.Thousands of wreaths and photos are lying round the battle fields. Parents claim that the weak constructions were unsafe during the catastrophe and entreat the government for respectable examination.It didn't take a long and Li Rongrong, the head of the state-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission declared that those buildings were in proper conditions. But if the further investigation proves the major state-owned building firms failure, he will call for consequences.But still, no one, not even miracle will be able to give back the parents their children, who might have died due the scuffled architecture.
